All volunteers must attend one of the training sessions held during the weeks prior to the Festival. These sessions provide you with all the necessary details and logistics of the Festival.

Schedule With a Friend:
If you would like to be scheduled with a friend(s), please list their name(s) below. Remember that they must also complete and submit their own volunteer applications separately. While we make every effort to schedule friends together as requested, committee positions may be previously filled, so we cannot guarantee requests will be fulfilled. If you are submitting print versions of applications, and you would like to be scheduled with a friend, please make sure to staple your applications together and submit them together.

Please schedule me with the following friend(s)

Recruit your friends, family members, neighbors, co-workers, business associates...

Help us recruit your friends to have fun! When you do, you make this event possible. Sign up a group from your office as a unique team building exercise. You can copy and distribute this form or fill in your friend's name and we will send an application right away!

I have read the 2004 Volunteer Program Information and Registration brochure. I agree to attend one of the training sessions and to adhere to the policies and guidelines regarding volunteer work for the 2004 International VSA arts Festival. (An authorized adult must agree to supervise the volunteer if 14 years of age or younger.)
